Fantasy Footbal Draft Results

[jmny]

This is the first draft I've participated in ever. $50, 12 team league, 10th pick. How'd I do?

Peyton Manning, Den QB
Alfred Morris, Wsh RB
Daryl Richardson, StL RB
James Jones, GB WR
A.J. Green, Cin WR
Marquees Colston, NO WR
Kyle Rudolph, Min TE
Steelers D/ST
Phil Dawson, SF K
Lance Moore, NO WR
Fred Jackson, Buf RB
Jay Cutler, Chi QB
Shonn Greene, Ten RB
Vincent Brown, SD WR
Ryan Broyles, Det WR

The obvious weak spot here is your RB crew aside from Morris. I like Richardson, I think he's a sleeper and I wanted him on my teams, but I wanted him on the bench. He is going to be the man in St. Louis, at least to start the season, but whether he will be successful or not is too big a risk to be starting in fantasy, IMO. Fred Jackson and Shonn Greene will only be worth a damn if CJ Spiller and Chris Johnson get injured (which I believe is highly likely with Spiller). Between your backup WRs and RBs you will have trouble effectively filling the flex spot on bye weeks, so keep an eye on the waiver wire at the beginning of the season for an undrafted breakout player (there's always a few of them). Your starting WRs are awesome, expect solid production out of all of them. Lance Moore is a gamble every week. One week he'll have 100yds and 2tds, the next he'll have 2 targets. The Chargers passing game has disappointed me the past couple years, I don't expect Vincent Brown to do much more than 500yds 4tds (at best). RYAN BROYLES, though, I like this guy as a sleeper. If the 40TD Stafford from 2 years ago shows up this season, I would expect Broyles to have about 6-8 of those. At TE, Rudolph isn't the worst, but he's going to be realllly inconsistent. Ponder loves him in the redzone, but that's about it.


TL;DR
Manning, Morris, Jones, Green, and Colston will win you a lot of weeks on their own, but keep an eye out for some pickups to give your team some depth.

This was my last draft. My most expensive league at $50. And I missed the first 6 rounds because I forgot about it, then proceeded to say **** it cause I was pissed off, and I scrimmed day of defeat instead. And became more pissed off because I was playing a terrible video game, and I had to listen to Matt Rogers in Ventrilo.

Anyway.

3 Arian Foster, Hou RB
22 A.J. Green, Cin WR
27 Demaryius Thomas, Den WR
46 Marques Colston, NO WR
51 Colin Kaepernick, SF QB
70 Ahmad Bradshaw, Ind RB
75 Rashard Mendenhall, Ari RB
94 Greg Jennings, Min WR
99 Greg Olsen, Car TE
118 Isaac Redman, Pit RB
123 Ryan Broyles, Det WR
142 Carson Palmer, Ari QB
147 Patriots D/ST D/ST
166 Jermaine Gresham, Cin TE
171 Mike Tolbert, Car RB
190 Josh Brown, NYG K


I'm going to need Bradshaw to go ahead and not suck and stay healthy. Kaepernickus will need to reach for the stars. I'm fine with my WRs, but had I been there I probably would have grabbed an RB2 earlier on instead of one of them. Oh well, we'll see what happens.

my expensive league and the one that only matters
this league has 3 WR and is a .5 ppr, everything else is standard

I had 8th pick

8th - Jammal Charles (IM VERY HAPPY WITH THIS)
17th - AJ Green (Hmmm Kinda uneasy but I had to, I had a hard time picking him or Demaryius Thomas)
32nd - Frank Gore (I'm very happy with this, I have no idea people kept pick others over him, I mean steven ridley? wtf)
41st - Victor Cruz (great for ppr imo but honestly I think I might of picked him a little early I wanted cobb he went 38th, serious question WOULD YOU TAKE WAYNE OR CRUZ?)
56th - seriously I got Eddie **** lacy at 56th I AM SOOOOO happy with this and kinda shocked no one wanted the rookie
65th - **** steve smith awesome for 65th
80th - MY BIGGEST PAIN AND SADNESS I wanted stafford and he got picked and I got stuck with Tony Romo and I am a huge giants fan.
89th - my first back up and slight risk but I'm happy with an 89 is greg jennings
104th - I wanted to handcuff Ben tate
113th - Vick as my back up and I'm curious what he can do, I'm happy to have this variant as a back up
128th - Rueben randle, he's nicks handcuff. and hopefully something I can trade with if hicks gets hurt
137th - Martellus Bennett I reallyed like him in blue but I'm sure he will be fine in black
152nd- **** JACQUIZZ RODGERS AT 152 FOR A HANDCUFF FOR JACKSON? I'm fine with that
161 - Kendell Hunter to protect frank gore
cowboys
randy bullock

So much rosterbation happening in this post.

I'm on board with your first three picks. I'm sure those were the best available at the time. AJ Green/Andy Dalton should have their best year together yet (that 3rd season breakout). Cruz will get in the end-zone more than Wayne, but Wayne should get more targets, and since it's a PPR league, Wayne might have been the better option. If Eli picks it up again this year, Cruz should have another 10+ TD season. If Cruz doesn't perform, I think Rueben Randle could be the Giants next breakout receiver (not necessarily the Victor Cruz style breakout from two years ago, but could compete with Cruz's numbers from last year, again depends on Eli and the O-line protecting him). I'm interested to see how Lacy does, but I don't buy into the excitement. He wasn't Trent Richardson in college, and I don't expect him to have a Trent Richardson rookie season, especially in that Packers game plan. Potentially solid backup though. I would stick with your WRs for your flex player. Steve Smith/Greg Jennings/possibly Randle should fill that role well. I felt like Jennings was slightly underrated this season. He did well in Green Bay, granted he had Aaron Rodgers, but there was more competition for targets. He will be Ponder's man in Minnesota when defenses are stacking the box against AP. Martellus should have as big a year as he had last year. Romo is a solid fantasy QB. People give him shit cause he loses games in clutch situations, but as a fantasy owner, who gives a shit about clutch when he's already thrown for 275+ and 2tds?

Overall, you did a fine job here. Rosterbate to your heart's content.

Dis team gon' shit on errrrryone

[`NG]

NG I'll do it if not for joey

Just did my $50 buy in league, which was a keeper league that had an owner abandon a team. So I got a shot at some good pickups:

(3)- Adrian Peterson- RB
(22)- David Wilson- RB
(27)- Brandon Marshall- WR
(46)- Maques Colston- WR
(51)- Matthew Stafford- QB
(70)- Ryan Matthews- RB
(75)- Greg Olsen- TE
(94)- Cincinnati Defense--> Purely a fan move, but it will most likely work out fine.
(99)- Steve Johnson- WR
(118)- Some linebacker, shitty league rules- autopicked while I was on the phone
(123)- Justin Tucker- K
(142) Tyler Eifert- TE
(147)- Pierre Thomas- RB
(166)- Alex Smith- QB
(171)- Jacquizz Rodgers- RB
(190)- Malcom Floyd- WR

Things went pretty well, but getting stuck with autopick due to a very poorly timed phone call kinda effed me towards the end.

How did you get AP as a 3rd pick?

-David Wilson? Are you a giants fan like myself? I love the guy but he seriously drops the ball to much
- and you got marshal? wowz
-coltson is not consistent for me and brees flings the ball everywhere but you better start him week 1
-you could of waited longer for stafford but i do love him
-too early for greg in my opinon
-why would you take a defense so early? oh it's a fan move kk
-and the rest are back ups and how jacquiz was picked up that late blows my mind

5.5/10 in my opinon

Keeper league, so a lot of the no-brainers were already spoken for. And as for Greg Olsen, the shitty NFL draft lobbey scrolled right as I clicked, and I drafted him on accident. Oh well, worse things could happen. IDK, I think Wilson will have a stud year with Bradshaw out of the picture, but you are right about ball security issues. Hopefully he will have that figured out by the season start-- defenses have largely figured out Eli and the Cruz/Nicks combo, which means huge upside for breakout runs. This draft was kind of goofy-- I wanted to wait longer for A LOT of positions, but trends in picking kinda ruined that (if I hadn't snapped up Stafford, I would have ended up with Pryor out of OAK). Matthews has screwed me on multiple seasons, as has Colston; upside is still there though. Hopefully Eifert will play a big part in the two TE formation towards the end of the season.

i wouldnt. but i am higher on mcfadden than most. either way, i would play a 3 down starting running back over a starting WR any day of the week regardless of how bad their team is around him.
